Report on indian Schools.

From theannual report oi.lohn B. Riley,

pears: The aggregate expenditure by the
government for the education OF Indian

and s3oS. 299 for the support and educa,
cation OF pupils Mt contract boarding
schools, most oil which are under control
OF religious denominations.
Oh the Sioux and their educationaliacili-

1t is my opinion that the Indian children
